Overview

About 1 Chaffinch Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

1 Chaffinch Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Desborough, Kettering, Kettering (NN14 2GF). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since September 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89). The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
